Original job description

Job Title: Mechanical EngineerJob DescriptionWe are seeking a hands-on Mechanical Engineer to advance cutting-edge robotics hardware in a full-time, on-site role in Bellevue, WA. You will connect detailed simulation work with real-world engineering by using finite element analysis to guide design decisions, drive improvements from modeling through testing, and produce release-quality documentation. In this position, you will collaborate closely with stakeholders, suppliers, and manufacturing partners to optimize designs for manufacturability, cost, assembly, reliability, and overall performance.Responsibilities

Perform structural and thermal finite element analyses, translating modeling results into clear design recommendations, tradeoffs, and engineering decisions.
Provide design-for-X feedback, including design for manufacturing and design for assembly, to inform and improve mechanical designs.
Leverage prior experience working with motors and actuators to influence design choices and system performance.
Define test plans, execute tests, investigate hardware failures, identify root causes, and iterate rapidly toward robust, working hardware.
Present design tradeoffs, technical risks, engineering decisions, and project progress directly to stakeholders in a clear and professional manner.
Apply structured quality and problem-solving methods to improve manufacturing performance and reduce field issues and safety risks.
Collaborate with suppliers and contract manufacturing partners to implement design recommendations and support production readiness.
Create and maintain detailed part and assembly drawings, with particular attention to features and tolerances that are critical to function.
Adapt to evolving project priorities while consistently delivering on engineering goals throughout a long-term engagement.
Demonstrate an ownership mindset by identifying needed work, managing priorities, and meeting commitments within a fast-paced schedule.

Essential Skills

Minimum of 2 years of experience performing finite element analysis (FEA).
At least 8 years of applicable mechanical engineering experience.
Bachelors or masters degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
Proficiency with FEA software, with ANSYS strongly preferred.
Proficiency with a mechanical CAD package, with SolidWorks strongly preferred.
Ability to work full-time on-site in Bellevue, WA.
Experience applying FEA results to guide design decisions and communicate tradeoffs.
Strong capability to create and interpret mechanical drawings and specifications.
Demonstrated ownership mindset, including self-directed work planning and accountability in a fast-paced environment.
Positive, client-focused approach and a strong commitment to ethical conduct.
Experience working with motors and actuators in mechanical systems.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience using SolidWorks PDM or similar systems to manage CAD files and revisions.
Practical knowledge of manufacturing processes and high-volume production methods, including injection molding, casting, sheet metal fabrication, and machining.
Understanding of actuators, gear trains, and transmissions, including their application in robotics or complex mechanical systems.
Strong skills in tolerance analysis and design for manufacturing and assembly (DFM/DFA).
Hands-on experience with testing, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis of mechanical hardware.
Experience navigating technical discussions with clients or demanding external stakeholders while remaining a hands-on individual contributor.
Experience performing torque-speed, duty-cycle, inertia, efficiency, life, force, energy, vibration, or thermal analyses.
Ability to clearly communicate complex technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences.
